Re: ITV1 HD on Virgin
I believe (and correct me if I'm wrong) that most of the major International sports events ie. Football World Cup, Euro Champs, Olympics etc HAVE to be on terrestrial TV according to the latest TV rights contracts.
VM would be missing a big trick if the world cup is to be shown on ITV HD and they don't get that channel before the start of the tournament.
PS. I believe the freesat ITV HD exclusivity deal has run out according to another post on this forum but I forget where
